36Use at your own risk.
37.SH BUGS
38A lot. The
39.BR whatis (5)
40database is usually generated automatically on most
41systems. This fails if the "NAME" section has more n/troff fluff than just
42an "\e" before the '\-', or is more than one line. Apply the KISS
43principle, try to use a minimum of smart macros, match your .RS and .RE's,
44etc.
